The present work contributes to the knowledge of the maternal factors of risk of the low birth weight in Bukavu-Sud/Kivu, RD Congo, serious problem. This retrospective survey was possible thanks to the register and to the cards of the patients of the service of neonatology of the hospital of reference of Mpazi-Bukavu, consulted with as criteria of inclusion, all children been born with a weight lower to 2500g, the one of exclusion includes the newborns descended of premature and dead childbirth born. The results discounted after the test of l'ANOVA and the Odds Ratio show that: Of the differences non meaningful stat between the different classes of age of parturient in survey, of or the fact of the luck. Of the differences non meaningful stat between the women having a parity lower to 4 and those having a parity superior and equal to 4, of or the fact of the luck. The prediction is 8% for the dead factor fetal uterine intra, 10% for the factor infection, 15% for Abortion, 19% for parity, factor Alcohol that has a prediction of 70%.
The chemical and microbiological analyses done on the newly introduced traditional alcoholic drinks and produced by the population in KATANA and BUGORHE, commonly named: BOA, KAZAMUKA and KALAMOS JUICE showed that the chemical quality of these last do not comply with recommended standards for wines and/or beers. Thus, they cannot be safe for human consumption. All these three drinks had alcohol content between 20.7 and 25.5% that are very high for a drink usually used in relatively high quantity of about 1litre. Once, they had pH between 2.3 and 2.5 that are too acidic and then harmful to health because the admissible pH must be at least of 4 and even the pH 3 is acceptable for the wines that are taken to relatively low quantities and during food. As for the microbiological analysis of the 3 samples using culture on three different sterile growth mediums, we did not observe presence of microorganisms. The revision of the technological processes proves to be indispensable in the manufacture of these drinks.
